So, your friends bought all these during the SARS outbreak. I owe them credit for braving death to buy condos.
Please ask you friends to unload his holdings ASAP. Then we can buy them cheap. but please don't unload blue horizon and varsity park, we won't buy those cheap looking condos.
Time to unload all these condos. Holding will lead to potntial big loss. Now crazy and red-hot market, so can sell and stupid people will buy. Once the market returns to sanity, this place will be begging people to buy again, like in the recent old days.
I guess you don't like how wealthy peoples operate. In the private banking division of UBS, there is property consultants (normally they were as senior property agants for many years) that work for them. Some of them bought up properties without even seeing them, purely based on trust of these professionals.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Most likely in the third or fourth quarter 2010, you will start to see the property sector to show weakness. Things will definitely won't look good from 2012...Originally Posted by Unregistered
2012 ... could be 2011 too. Around there.Originally Posted by Unregistered

I don't stay around the area but I was surprised to hear from him regarding the "smell" as I only know boonlay area do smell of cocoa etc....anyway gdluck to those vested. I think the redevelopment of alexandra district park into a financial hub looks promising for the neighbouring properties in pasir panjangOriginally Posted by blackjack21trader
I don't doubt that you did not make this up. We live on Clementi road for seven years, and we visited the west coast area frequently. We don't smell anything unusual. Perhaps our nose is not as good as your friends'. he must be a blood hound. should work for CID.
Smell. Got sure got smell. Everywhere in SIngapore also got smell wat. Got blood hounds everywhere oso. Very smelly man. West Coast extra smell becos of the port, containers, big trucks and smoke from J.Island. But it is not that smelly compared to many other places in Singapore.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Was told that all the available 4 bed rms are sold out but there are still 3 bed rms available.....
I think it will sold out soon Parc Condo is out...
Parc condo will not dare to be launched until all the dengue warning banners come down.
Last I checked, they were more concerned about the hungry ghost....
It will be strange if buyers dun buy bcos of Dengue...
The dengue problem seems not to be able to go away in the west coast area in spite of dozens of inspectors from ENV and hundreds of volunteers combing the areas for weeks. Conclusion: the area is more filthy than most areas in Singapore. This could be a problem to folks who are thinking buying property in that area.Originally Posted by Unregistered
If you don't believe what I said, just ask yourself why don't you see problem of this sort in more upscale areas such as bukit timah even though in bukit timah, you have far more natural habitats for mosquitos breeding.
that is why something BIG is going to happen here soon that is so drastic that it will even take away the problem of dengune once and for all, let alone the problem of boats and what have you. You'll see in next month's around 15 August news mark my words.Originally Posted by Unregistered

The Singapore Double Train ?
U r really scaring the hell out of many people. I am now imagining that someone going to drop a bomb there to eradicate all diseases and people, like what I have seen on the show "Outbreak".Originally Posted by blackjack21trader
o its something good of course.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Dengue is a current issue affecting Singapore islandwide. West Coast is only one area affected among others. By the time The Parc and other projects are completed in arnd 3-4 yrs time, I believe the Govt would hv resolved this.
The master plan is to make Singapore a safe global city attracting foreign money. Surely this includes making rich foreigners feel safe from disease; otherwise they won't invest here.
Those buying to stay/long term investors will be looking to the future, when the West Coast area will be reasonably placed as a mid-tier area. Only short-sighted, short-term speculators/flippers fear current conditions.
I guess you missed the point. Certainly, dengue problem will go away eventually, but I think he/she meant the dengue problem reveal some of the truly filthy areas in Sinagpore. Many areas in SIngapore looks (could be deceiving) as or even more filthy than west coast area, but they have not had outbreak of dengue.Originally Posted by Unregistered
Rochester sold out at crazy prices. By the time Parc launch, the price will be ridiculous. Rochester was supposed to be launched at 550 psf if you dig the past reports. but sold in excess of 1kpsf. More like 1.3k based from what i heard from banker. It looks like Botannia is a steal now. whoever is thinking of waiting, please think cautiously. The prices are now on a run away. Food for thought.
You must be joking by comparing Botania to RochesterOriginally Posted by Unregistered
Rochester are in direct access of two MRT lines and a host of modern hip cultural and entertainment infrastructures, Botania is at the junction of jurong industrial estate. Yes, Botania is almost freehold, but these days anything consider hip and upcoming are almost exclusively leasehold and no one would pay attention to this other than older generation of locals who are still obssessing with this sort of thing.
